He was especially good at GoldenEye (so he owned an N64). He could beat most games within two days of buying them. And when he lost, which was rare, he would rip the console apart, declaring: "Don't worry, I'll just by another one."
This would've been when he was a junior player, like mid to late '90s. Mario Tennis came out in 2000, around the time he was reaching ATP 250 finals and his career was heating up. I would guess this success put his all-night gaming binges on hold. Which leads me to conclude -- based on all available empirical data, and as a die-hard Federer fan -- there is exactly a 60% chance that he has played Mario Tennis.
